Answer:

7.85sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

s(t)=16t squared​, where t is time in seconds. The height of a certain tower is 986 feet.

s(t) = 16t²

so when s = 986feet

16t² = 986 feet

t² = 986 /  16

t² = 61.625

t = √61.625

t= 7.85 seconds

Answer: t = 7.85seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Height of tower = 986 Feets

Function s(t) = 16t^2

To find the time t 8 in Seconds taken for an object to fall to the ground from the top of the​ building

16t^2 = 986

t^2 = 986/16

t ^2 = 61.625

Take the square root of both sides

t = sqrt(61.625)

t = 7.85seconds

The length of a rectaangle 48 centimeters. The relationship between the length, the width, and the perimeter of the rectangle ca
Monica [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the perimeter is 48 = 2L + 2W.  This reduces to

24 = L + W.  Next, substitute, one by one, the 3 widths 10 cm, 3.6 cm and w cm:

a)  If W = 10 cm, 24 = L + W becomes 24 = L + 10, or L = 14 cm

b)  If W = 3.6 cm, 24 = L + W becomes 24 = L + 3.6, or L = 20.6 cm

c)  If W = w, 24 L + W becomes 24 = L + w, so that L = (24 - w) cm

A rectangle is shown with length x plus 10 and width 2 x plus 5. The inside of the rectangle is shaded other than an unshaded sq
klio [65]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is shown with length x plus 10 and width 2 x plus 5.

so the rectangle area = length * width

= (x + 10) * (2x + 5)

an unshaded square with length x plus 1 and width x plus 1

so the unshaded square area = (x + 1) * (x + 1)

the shaded area = rectangle area - square area

= (x + 10) * (2x + 5) - (x + 1) * (x + 1)

= (2x^2 + 20x + 5x + 50) - (x^2 + x + x + 1)

= x^2 + 23x + 49
